Time To Man Up For Bruins
Posted by TheHockeyGuy on December 1st, 2009
The Bruins power play has looked better on the ice than it does on paper.
The unit remains near the bottom of the NHL in efficiency despite the enormous gains it has made the past eight games. The B’s are 26th on the power play list with a paltry 16.5 percent success rate (15-of-91), and they have done better on the road (17.6) than at home (15.8).
They advanced their standing by scoring three man-advantage goals in five chances during Saturday night’s 4-3 shootout victory against the Ottawa Senators at the Garden. The Bruins have scored seven goals in 29 power-play opportunities (24.1 percent) during the past eight games.
The Bruins can advance those numbers tomorrow night when they host the Tampa Bay Lightning, who are ranked 26th in road penalty-kill efficiency at 73 percent.
